Moving users from one server to another using Shared Services

How do you migrate users and groups from one server to another from Hyperion Shared Services in version 9.3.1?
When users were provisioned from EAS on version 7.x we could use Migration Utility but now since users are provisioned using Shared Services, what is the approach to be followed?

Someone will probably give you a real-world example of how to do it, but to get you started you may want to review the Hyperion Security Administration guide, section "Migrating Native Directory" which discusses that you need to first install the Import/Export Utility on your Shared Services server, then create an export file, then go to your target Shared Services Server and long story short, import it.

Moving Users from one server to another

Is it possible to move my network users from one Xserve to another? I know this used to be possible to do with NetInfo, but I haven't heard of anything like this using Ldap.

I used Open Directory Archive/Restore in Server Admin to carry over my ldap users through a reinstall. Their UIDs, groups, passwords, etc. all came across. The home directories were on a different volume and everything basically worked after the reinstall.

Move VM from one server to another using Local Repositories

There is the following structure:
ovhost-01 with first_repo
ovhost-02 with second_repo
Oracle VM version: 3.1.1
Both first_repo and second_repo are Local Repositories.
On ovhost-01 I have VM named "TestOVM" with status Stopped .
Task:
Move VM from ovhost-01 to ovhost-02 using "Clone or Move" section from VM Manager ( http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E27300_01/E27309/html/vmusg-vm-manage.html#vmusg-vm-move )
Whenever I try VM moving virtual disk stays on the first_repo.
With shared NFS-storage this feature working well.
Question:
Is it possible to move VM from one server to another with Local Repositories ?

Neither ovhost-01 nor ovhost-02 have access to each other. It move or copy... the admin server that is connected to the local repository would have to have access to the target repository.

Moving users from One Group to another

Hi Guys,
I am looking for a script which will allow me to move users from One ADGroup to another ADGroup. I have checked ther scripts which are currently present. However, none of them if fixing my issue.
Details:
I have Different locations and users moves from one location to another location and same thing happens as they gets moved from one Tower to another Tower (Like From TOWER A to Tower B). Also users gets promoted and most of the time they are in bulk.We also
have 2 domains one is parent and another is child domain.
So, I hope above information is making sense and also I Completely new to PS so after going to lot of scripts i asking for help on this. I hope I can gets this sorted out as soon as possible as my work is piling up.

You are asking a lot of questions about AD. Do you know how to do this in AD with D tools?
There is no magic way to guess at what you need. I recommend that you start by learning AD and PowerShell. There are good resources here:

Moving SharePoint from One server to another

Hi,
We are in the process of migrating our current sharepoint farm server to another server.
Our scenario
WFE Servers = SERVER01 AND SERVER02
APP Servers   = SERVER03 AND SERVER04
SQL Server   = SERVER05
New WFE Servers = SERVER06 AND SERVER07
New APP Servers = SERVER08 AND SERVER09
New SQL Server = SERVER10
Please does anyone know the best approach for migrating a sharepoint farm from one server to another.
My current approach will be to
FOR THE SQL SERVER
1.    stop all processes that might be using sharepoint such as search, sptimer using the net stop cmdlet on SERVER05
2.    back up all sharepoint content databases
3     Copy and restore the backed up databases on the sql server using the same name to ensure permissions are not      tampered with on SERVER10
4.    Ensure the firewall on the new sql server is open on port 1433
5.    Configure a new SQL Alias on the new server so that SharePoint can point to the new sql server
6.   Restart all the stopped processes in 1 above.
However, my questions are
Is the above the right approach?
How do i migrate the WFE and APP servers - do i need to reconfigure sharepoint on both wfe nd app server and then do a mount-spcontentdatabase cmdlet?
Please advise is urgently needed
Kind Regards
Louis
thanks

Moving music from one computer to another using an iPod?

Thing is I want to buy a new laptop soon, and I'd like to move my music from my old computer to the new one, but I'd like to use my iPod 160GB as a hard disk to transport it, I've copied my music and video files along with other important data into folders I've created inside the iPod, it covers about a 3rd of the total space in the iPod. Question is, can I transport the music to the new computer without the system resetting the iPod to work with the new computer itself?
Last time(like 3 weeks ago) I had to reset my computer(the old one) because of viruses trouble and such, but I had previously saved my data inside the iPod, so I just copied the files to the same locations as they were in the previous configuration including the iTunes folders library files to a folder I created, then installed iTunes and then the iTunes library files to its own folder; it worked wonders because no files or playlists were lost, and when I plugged my iPod, I had no problems, but I reckoned no problems happened there because this iPod had been used with this computer already, so I wonder if this would be effective with a new computer.
So question remains, could I transport the files(all data) from the iPod to the new computer without it resetting itself and hence losing any of the data?

How to Copy and Move (Clone) your iTunes Library from One Computer to Another – or Archive Prior to a PC Re-Image or Reformat
This well-written iLounge Article is a must-read for anyone considering moving their Library to a new computer or a new location. Or, just wants a better understanding of how iTunes manages your music.
Below is the conceptual framework with related and important links. Apply and adapt it to your specific situation and equipment resources.
The safest, quickest, and most optimal method to move your Library to a new computer is to actually clone the entire ‘iTunes’ folder (directory) structure, rather than just copying just the song files. By copying the entire ‘iTunes’ folder and all sub-folders, you capture not only the music files, but the all-important ‘iTunes Library.itl’ database file (usually located in the ‘iTunes’ folder), which contains all the data about your songs (Playlists, Ratings, Play Counts, Last Played, Date Added, etc). See: What are the iTunes Library files?
Install iTunes on the new computer. Then go back to your old computer and move (copy) the "iTunes" folder which usually resides inside your "…\My Documents\My Music" folder from the old computer to the exact same place (both Drive Letter and complete Path) on the new computer. When you open iTunes on the new computer it will look and behave exactly the same way it did on the old, Play Counts, Ratings, Comments and all!
Preserving and transferring the original Library Database file (iTunes Library.itl) is most critical with iPhones as they can sync with only one iTunes Library at a time. This is managed by the ‘Library Persistent ID’ hardcoded within each iTunes database file. If your ITL file has a different ID, your iTunes/iPhone attachment will be seen as a new Library and you will need to completely re-sync your iPhone. This may or may not be an issue for you. See how to manage the LPID via This Link.
NOTE: It is usually safer moving files between computers with the same version of iTunes!!
iTunes Files to Copy and Move to your New PC (for iPod, iTouch &/or iPhone – use as needed)
1) All Music Files in their current folder structure (usually located in and under the ‘iTunes Music’ folder)
2) All Application Files in their current folder structure (usually located in the ‘Mobile Applications’ folder)
3) All Album Artwork Files in their current folder structure (usually located in and under the ‘Album Artwork’ folder)
4) The Library database file: ‘iTunes Library.itl’ located in the ‘iTunes’ folder
5) The Library XML file: ‘iTunes Music Library.xml’ located in the ‘iTunes’ folder
6) The iTunes Library Extras.itdb and iTunes Library Genius.itdb files, also in the ‘iTunes’ folder
Some additional files to consider also include in a backup:
7) Any XML playlist files created for Playlist retention
8) The two iTunes.pref files (optional)
i) C:\Documents and Settings\<your username>\Application Data\Apple Computer\iTunes\iTunes.pref
ii) C:\Documents and Settings\<your username>\Local Settings\Application Data\Apple Computer Inc\iTunes.pref
9) The XML file of Ratings, Play Counts and Last Played attributes saved from the main Library and created by Otto’s SaveRatings script (also optional, but recommended):
“Download this: http://ottodestruct.com/itunes/SaveRatings.zip . It's a program, just run it like any other program. Run it on the machine where you're copying the info from BEFORE you move the files to the new machine. Click the "Save Ratings" button and it'll create a ratings.xml file. Now when you move the files, move the program and this file as well. Then after you make your new iTunes library, run it again and click the "Restore Ratings" button. Voila, all your information is back in the Library. Well, most of it anyway, it's not perfect. It'll tell you what songs it couldn't figure out though, and there's usually not very many.”
10) The folder(s) used to store and sync photos to your iPhone (if applicable)
11) The iTunes created Backup of your iPhone usually located at:
C:\Documents and Settings\USERNAME\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup
Here's a list of methods to copy and move your music files from one computer to another:
1) Use an External Hard Drive (ExHD) to move the complete files and Folder structures from one computer to another (my preferred option). You can clone’ the entire ‘iTunes’ folder structure in one very easy step. Also great to have available for complete backups of your Library. External hard drives now run less than $100 for 500GBs-1TB of storage. See This Link
2) Directly connect the two computers:
2a) Connect them through a Router &/or Network
2b) Directly connect using an Ethernet cable: Straight for using at least one Mac; or Crossover for PC/PC Instructions here.
2c) Connect them via a USB-to-USB Network Bridge. Example here. There are various types out there (use Google).
--Then copy the files from one computer to the other.
3) Use the iPod as a transfer device, as this extensive Apple link explains. It will be a bit easier if your iPod has a larger capacity than your music collection, otherwise you will need to perform multiple copy/move transfers. This well written process also works fine while using any other data transfer medium (ExHD, Flash Drive, DVD, CD, Zipp, Jazz, etc.).
4) Burn several DVDs (at 4.7GBs each) with your music data files and folder structure, and load them onto the new computer. Re-writable DVDs are more cost effective (if your DVD drive can manage these types).
5) Burn 6x more on CDs (at 700MB each) than in #4 above and load the files and folders on the new computer. Re-writable CDs are more cost effective (if your CD drive can manage these types).
6) Use a larger USB Flash drive (1GB - 4GB) to move the files and folders. Best if the flash drive is larger than your Library, otherwise you will need multiple copy/move transfers.
These are links to various additional instructions on performing the transfer (read them all, but some listed steps may not be required depending on your specific situation):

Also, remember to Deauthorize your PC before you reformat it, dispose of it, or retire it from iTMS use (if applicable).
Best of Luck

Moving object from one client to another using transport requests...

Hi,
If we want to move one object from one client to another, we go to se09 and release it. I know this. But after release what are the next steps to move it from one system to another ?
Regards,
Rajesh

Hello Rajesh
If the two systems share a common transport directory then you can simply go to transaction STMS, double-click on the import queue (target system), then choose menu Extras -> Other Requests -> Add.
The transport request will be added to the import buffer. Next you can import the request.
If the two systems do not share a common transport directory you can use RFC-enabled function module EPS_FTP_PUT to copy the data and cofile from the source to the target system (check for DIR_TRANS directories using transaction AL11).

Moving users from one machine to another

I am trying to move users from a Solaris 2.6 box to a new Solaris 9 box. I tried moving /etc/passwd /etc/shadow and /etc/group to the new box, but when I try to login I get the following error in /var/adm/messages
Mar 17 17:10:15 host.name sshd[1573]: [ID 800047 auth.error] error: Could not get shadow information for NOUSER
I also tried running pwconv to make a new shadow file from the passwd file.. no good.
How do I move these users to this new machine?

You shouldn't really have overwritten the whole passwd / shadow / group files - did you back them up first?
If so, reinstate them and then just copy the entries you require.
You'll also need the home directories for each user - if they're all in the same place, eg /export/home then you could tar it up and copy it over....
tar cvf /tmp/home.tar /export/home
compress /tmp/home.tar
copy /tmp/home.tar.Z to new box and untar it.

How-to move objects (users) from one ou to another using Powershell and an XLSX

Hi all,
I have a spreadsheet that has headers. I need to move all of the objects on this exception report to the proper OU (all going to the same OU).
The header that validates the need to move is called "Display Name".
The process now is as follows.
1) Copy displayname
2) Open AD search
3) enter display name in find box
4) locate object
5) right click object in results and click move.
6) move to the OU "Home.test.com/uk Online/Users OU/Business Process"
--- How can i use Import-CSV to automate this process?
Thanks for any help, there is about 4K lines on this sheet and it normally takes about 25 days of "busy work" to accomplish this, then 5 days later I have to re-run the report and start over.
Josh
Josh Borges

Hi Josh,
This assumes that you can save your file as an actual CSV file:
$skippedUsers = @()
Import-Csv .\userList.csv | ForEach {
$displayName = $_."Display Name"
$user = Get-ADUser -Filter "DisplayName -eq '$displayName'" -Properties DisplayName
If ($user.Count) {
$skippedUsers += $displayName
Else {
$user | Move-ADObject -TargetPath 'OU=Business Process,OU=Users OU,OU=uk Online,DC=home,DC=test,DC=com' -WhatIf
If ($skippedUsers) { Write-Host 'The following users could not be moved automatically:' -ForegroundColor Red ; $skippedUsers }
Do you have to use the display name property? That's not guaranteed to be unique, so you might run into problems. The script above will not attempt to move the user if more than one is returned by the command.
EDIT: I've also added -WhatIf to Move-ADObject. Now the command won't actually move your users, it will just tell you about it. Remove it if you're happy with the output.

Copying an app from one server to another using HfmCopyApplication.exe

Hi,
I am trying to copy an HFM application from Production Instance to DR Instance using HfmCopyApplication.exe.
I have added the Hyperion product folder of DR to the network of production so that I can select the Destination database connection file while running HfmCopyApplication.exe.
While running the HfmCopyApplication.exe as I select the MS_SQL_SERVER_hfm.udl for the destination and click Next I get an error.
The SQL Server database for DR instance is located in a different server and therefore it is not being able to connect it seems.
The error that I am getting says : "Failed to connect to the destination database using the UDL provided!"
"SQL Error : [DBNETLIB][ConnectionOpen(Connect()).]SQL Server doesnot exist or access denied."
Please suggest how to resolve this issue.
Thanks,
Suchismita

It seems UDL cannot connect to the target database.
You can do the following check:
1. Ping DR database server from Prod App Server. If ping is ok, it means the network between Prod and DR is ok.
2. Check DR database is started.

Moving files from one folder to another using workflows

Hi everyone,
I need help creating a workflow. Within my Shared Documents Library, there is a folder, within which there are other sub-folders.
Shared Documents--> Resumes --> Approved
Shared Documents--> Resumes --> Rejected
I want to create a workflow so that the resumes are uploaded to the Resumes folder and based on whether the user approves or rejects them, they are moved into either the Approved or Rejected folders. Any help would be highly appreciated
Thank you.

Why to make it more complex when we already have facility to group them by status option? Create a view and select group by “status” or create a separate web part page and add Shared Document library web part 2 times on the same page. For the first web part
select filter option which only displays files with “Approved” status and for the other web part select it for “Rejected”
Though you can refer below link if you wish to involve workflow into this

Moving iPhotos from one account to another via "Shared" folder

Every once in awhile, I like to share photos between accounts on the same iMac, so that my wife can use some of the pictures. Lately, if I put them in the "Share" folder on the HD, they come out NOT useable in the other account. They are usually in jpeg format, but my wife's account gets a "corrupted" message.
What am I doing wrong? Is there another way to transfer the pictures?
thanks, Barry

thanks again

Moving user files from one server to another.

Hi everyone
I would need your help to help me migrate the user files of around 300 persons to a new server.
Is there a tool that could help me doing that?
Here is the situation:
I have an old 2003 server with all the user accounts. We are using the shares to manage rights.
We want to migrate all these accounts to a 2008 R2 server using NTFS rights.
So:
is there a tool that could:
- copy the files and put NTFS right automatically with the username (%username%) as owner for each user personal folder.
- change the path of the personal folder in each account in AD to the new server.
- Make them automatically members of a specific group (We use that group to exclude these users from the old login script that would've map to old server instead.)
is there anyone who could help me with this issue?
Thank you very much!
Dag

Hi Dag,
You can use robocopy to copy user files NTFS permissions from one server to another server and use /COPY:O to copy the owner information.
For robocopy command, I would like to suggest you refer to the below article:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc733145(v=ws.10).aspx
Robocopy will not help copy Share permissions but only NTFS permissions. So if the drive letter will not be changed, you can backup and restore the Share permission with steps here:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/125996
Then you can refer to the article below to change the path of the personal folder in each account in AD:
Change a user's home directory

How to transport a user defined selection screen (0100) from one server to another.
PBO and PAI modules written in PBO and PAI events for the selection screen are
not transported.
How to transport the modules in the events for the selection screen.

Hi,
Krishna, All the Objects(prms,classes,tables,stru...) will be transported thru Transport Objects only..
Check Utilities->version->Version Mgt -> Here u will have the Transport number(if it's created under trnasportable obj).If you do not find TP no,then u would hav saved that as a Local Object.
Then Relase the TP no from SE10 Trnx.
